BACKGROUND: Pediatric respiratory diseases, including asthma and pneumonia, are major causes of morbidity and mortality in children. Auscultation of lung sounds is a key diagnostic tool but is prone to subjective variability. The integration of artif...
Physicians evaluate a patient's respiratory health during a physical examination by visual assessment of the work of breathing (WoB) to determine respiratory stability, and by detecting abnormal lung sounds via lung auscultation using a stethoscope t...
Auscultation is one of the key medical skills in physical examination. The main problem with auscultation is the lack of objectivity of the findings and great dependence on the experience of the examiner. Auscultation using machine learning and neura...
Auscultation is a method that involves listening to sounds from the patient's body, mainly using a stethoscope, to diagnose diseases. The stethoscope allows for non-invasive, real-time diagnosis, and it is ideal for diagnosing respiratory diseases an...
Bowel sounds, a reflection of the gastrointestinal tract's peristalsis, are essential for diagnosing and monitoring gastrointestinal conditions. However, the absence of an effective, non-invasive method for assessing digestion through auscultation ha...

Patients with nasogastric (NG) tubes require careful monitoring due to the potential impact of the tube on their ability to swallow safely. This study aimed to investigate the utility of high-resolution cervical auscultation (HRCA) signals in assessi...
BACKGROUND: The interpretation of lung sounds plays a crucial role in the appropriate diagnosis and management of pediatric asthma. Applying artificial intelligence (AI) to this task has the potential to better standardize assessment and may even imp...

One in every four newborns suffers from congenital heart disease (CHD) that causes defects in the heart structure. The current gold-standard assessment technique, echocardiography, causes delays in the diagnosis owing to the need for experts who vary...
Simple sensor-based procedures, including auscultation and electrocardiography (ECG), can facilitate early diagnosis of valvular diseases, resulting in timely treatment. This study assessed the impact of combining these sensor-based procedures with m...
